2003. On that first mission, after just a couple of days in Honduras, he was
touched by what he saw and by his emotions; at that point he knew that this
trip would be the first of many more to come! He remembered saying, I dont want
to just go back home and only talk about this experience for the next six
months; I need to do what I can to help. Steve and his wife Sharon also lived
in Mexico for one year 2014 to 2015, where they work closely with the people in
the community near San Vicente Guerrero. They quickly realized that education

Sharon has
been working as a registered Massage Therapist for the since 1996. She has run
her own practice since 1998 and has lots of experience in managing a small
business. Her greatest motivation to serve is to improve the conditions for the
children living in Honduras and Mexico one at a time! Sharon is the one behind
the scene, she is the bookkeeper and proof ready Steve posting! (If there is
spelling mistakes, it is because he did not wait for her to review it before it
was sent or posted!!). She has traveled to Honduras on a few missions already
and loves the country and the people of Honduras. She feels like the people of
Honduras have so much to offer us and feel privileged to serve them. More
recently Sharon lived in Mexico near the small community of Las Avas. She
really enjoyed serving in the community and hopes to return someday to continue
serving these wonderful and loving. Sharon was instrumental in getting HHCF
officially registered as a charity in Canada. She has resigned from the board
as of May 2018, but will still help on the side :)
